From Amitabh Bachchan to Ranveer Singh, I have sung for different generations of actors.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
My favourites are Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Kishore Kumar and Mohammed Rafi. They are the four legends. I have worked with them in hundreds of songs.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
Everyone abroad knows me because of the songs 'Jimmy Jimmy Aaja Aaja' and 'I Am A Disco Dancer,' both from 'Disco Dancer.'
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
There is only one Kishore Kumar, he was exceptional. No one can ever be like him.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
Remixed songs in a way are helping the legendary songs revive their charm and reach out to the newer generations.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I want Bappa to be amongst the best music composers. My father was a great singer and I also did quite well and now my son would take forward the legacy, as music is in our blood.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
Since his childhood, Bappa has observed me singing and practicing and is well aware of all sorts of recording and singing arrangements. I have a studio at my home, so whenever he needs my help I make sure I stand by him. I often sing for the tunes that he composes.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
Throughout my career I've never worried about who will be singing my song on the screen.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I'm the only composer who has scored for two-three generation of actors. Be it for Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan or Dharmendra, Sunny Deol or Sunil Dutt, Sanjay Dutt - I have done it all.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I want to bring forth the historical significance of Sreerampur and turn it into a tourism hub.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
People often complain that celebrities after joining politics are not seen once the polls are over. But I am not like them. I would work for development.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I feel very lucky that I got to work with Lata Mangeshkar, Asha didi and many more in the 1980s.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
After 1999, I thought that I needed a break. As a senior composer, I didn't like the trend of three music directors working on a single film. But after a few quiet years, I was back for good.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
Gujarati is a very sweet language and I have always used elements from Gujarati songs in my music.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
Way back before 1980, prior to 'Disco Dancer' breaking into the collective consciousness of filmgoers, I had come to Chennai to compose for a film called 'Suraksha.'
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I still remember how we, all in the family, used to sit in front of the radio to listen to Ameen Sayani's programme of top 10 songs 'Binaka Geetmala' in which I was constantly ranked number one for many weeks.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
My father Apresh Lahiri and mother Bansari Lahiri were great composers of their time.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I owe 40 per cent of my success to films from the south like 'Himmatwala,' 'Toofan,' 'Mawaali,' 'Maqsad,' Tamil and Telegu films such as 'Big Boss,' 'Apurva Shar,' 'Gangleader,' etc. I salute the south for contributing immensely to my success.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I was the first Indian music composer to win the China Gold Award for 'Jimmy Jimmy' from 'Disco Dancer.' Adam Sandler repeated the song in his film 'Zohan.' 'Disco Dancer' is historical, as are 'Sharaabi' and 'Namak Halal.'
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I have done 33 films in one year, for which I hold a Guinness Book World record. Plus I've done songs for all languages from Hindi to Malayalam, Punjabi to Telugu, and Kannada to Oriya.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
My father, Aparesh Lahiri, was a musician too, and at a very young age, I was geared up for a career in music.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
I'm not an actor like Shah Rukh Khan, Amitji or Salman Khan. My magic lies in my music.
Quote by -Bappi Lahiri
If I become an MP I'll work for both Bollywood and Tollywood, specially for the old and out of work technicians. This is not an idle promise, Bappi Lahiri will keep his word.
